WWE Survivor Series 2023: 10 Nightmares That Could Come True
6. And The Miz Wins IC Gold
Then, this!
GUNTHER has shattered Honky Tonk Man's IC Title record now, and some fans thought WWE were holding off on booking a championship loss until then. If GUNTHER is heading up the card through WrestleMania season, then creative could well be seeking an excuse to take the belt from him ASAP.
In short, Miz would benefit from that scheming by rubber-stamping his newfound babyface turn with a title triumph. The issue loads of folks would have with this is is two-fold. Firstly, GUNTHER as Intercontinental Champ is a ride nobody wants to stop living. Second, Miz doesn't actually need a strap to help his face switch.
Any Miz win would come totally out of the blue and might well threaten GUNTHER's steely credibility without any reason to do just that. If the Imperium main man is heading for main events, then have him do so as an unstoppable midcard champion who's looking skyward (not someone recovering from a damaging loss).
